Any New Portugieser Perpetual Calendar?

[Monster]

I've been looking to pick up a Portugieser Perpetual Calendar rep. From my TD, APSF is out of stock and not able to get them. I haven't seen anything overly positive on the V9F versions so don't want to go that route.

Any news of updated reps coming out, or even being worked on?

According to my TD there have been so many issues with the APSF that even if they become available again he would not recommend them.
I think also that the market and demand for those very complicated watches is not huge. They look good but very little of the complications are actually really working.
Perhaps you could be lucky at M2M. Good luck I any case, they do look great.

Yeah I've been turned away from these reps based on complexity and movement issues. Based on my novice understanding, I imagine the building of these things is wildly complicated. Thankfully, I'm not looking for 1:1 functionality and certainly not reliability. To your point, they do look great!

You might want to try to ask Fat Panda. Sometimes he can find very hard to find watches
